🟡A GREAT MORNING OF HURLING! 🔵

What a fantastic morning at King & Moffatt Dr Hyde Park earlier today for our Monster Underage Hurling Blitz 2026, with 8 clubs, 48 teams and more than 350 young hurlers from U6 to U10 taking part! 👏

The home of Roscommon GAA was a hive of activity as Oran Hurling GAA Club, Athleague/Tremane Hurling Club, Four Roads Hurling Club, Padraig Pearses, Naomh Dominic, Boyle GAA & LGFA, Roscommon Gaels and Tooreen Hurling Club enjoyed a brilliant morning of hurling — all topped off with a very well-earned ice cream! 🍦

It was fantastic to give our youngest hurlers the opportunity to play at King & Moffatt Dr Hyde Park, and hopefully in the years ahead we’ll see many of them return to that same pitch wearing the Primrose & Blue and representing Roscommon Hurling.

A special thank you to Roscommon GAA Coiste Iomána for organising the blitz and special thanks to Tier Tech for generously sponsoring the Monster Hurling Blitz 2026 and for supporting the development of underage hurling in Roscommon.

Well done to all the young players, coaches, organisers, volunteers , parents and everyone who helped make the morning such a success.

The future of Roscommon hurling is looking bright!

FINAL ROUND. EVERYTHING TO PLAY FOR.

It’s set to be a huge weekend of club football as the group stages of the Roscommon Club Championships reach their conclusion.

Across the Hodson Bay Hotel SFC, McNultys Furniture IFC and King & Moffatt Offsite JFC, there are 18 Round 3 games — six at each grade — with plenty still to be decided.

Some fates may already be known, but for many clubs the final round will determine who secures an automatic Quarter-Final place, heads for the Preliminary Play-Offs, or faces a relegation battle.

And to make things even more interesting, all games within each group throw in at the same time. No watching and waiting — every team has to take care of its own business! 🔥

📺 10 games will be streamed live on Clubber: https://clubber.ie/

🎟️ Supporters are reminded that tickets must be purchased in advance. There will be NO CASH sales at the gates: Purchase tickets via Roscommon GAA⁠ https://embed.futureticketing.ie/c/roscommon-gaa/?ftredirect=1

18 games. Three championships. Qualification, play-offs and relegation on the line.

It’s going to be a busy one! 🟡🔵

Best of luck to all clubs, players and match officials involved. 👏
